SUGARFREE KHAJOOR MODAK RECIPE / DATES MODAK RECIPE  / KHAJUR MODAK RECIPE

Modak is a very popular neivedyam recipe for lord Ganesha during Ganesha Chaturthi. There are different ways one can make a modak. Today i have used dry fruits and dates to make the modak.  I have used moulds to shape the modak. 

Khajur modak is an easy, healthy modak you can make for this Ganesh chaturthi. Artificial sugar free modak uses dates as main ingredient. 

INGREDIENTS

  • Dates / khajur – 1 cup good quality [seedless]
  • Poppy seeds / khus khus – 2 tbsp
  • Cashew finely chopped – ¼ cup
  • Almonds / badam finely chopped – ¼ cup
  • Pista finely chopped – ¼ cup
  • Ghee – 1 tbsp
  • Modak mould

PREPARATION

  1. Discard the seeds of the khajur and chop it very very finely .
  2. Also finely chop the other dry fruits . 

METHOD  –  https://youtu.be/RGVwPbgOcco

Dry roast the poppy seeds on medium flame till aromatic.[colour should not change , less than a minute ]

Dry roast the cashew  + pista + badam .[ colour should not change , 1 – 2 Mins ]

Heat 1 tbsp ghee in a non stick pan on medium low flame, add the chopped khajur .

Stir cook for 4 – 5 minutes, till it becomes soft / moist / pulpy.

Off the flame when it becomes like a whole mass.

Immediately mix in the dry fruits + dry fruits .

Mix all the ingredients well.

Allow it to cool .

Remove it in a plate and start kneading it once you are able to handle it .

Grease your hands with ghee and fill the mould with the mixture.

Unmould carefully and arrange in paper liners. Grease both the mould and hands with ghee every time to finish all.

Store it in airtight containers .Will last for more than 2 weeks.

NOTES

  • For extra flavour add in 1 tbsp of gulkand in the khajur .
  • You can add more ingredients like white sesame, melon seeds, desiccated coconut, kismis , fig /anjeer , edible gum [gond ]
  • I tried grinding the dates in the mixer ,but could not – the blades got jam .
  • You can add 1 tbsp of condensed milk , if the mixture is too dry.
  • You can give any shape.
  • You can also roll it into balls.
  • Instead of coating with poppy seeds, you can coat it with desiccated coconut .Instead of rolling with poppy seeds , we can add the roasted poppy seeds with the dry fruits.
  • If using Poppy seeds , clean by picking tiny sand particles .
  • After removing from fridge it will become very hard for slicing .So keep aside for sometime and then slice it .
  • Use dates of good quality.Soft.
